Watch your triglyceride level, lady.

Goodbye to Mrs. Spratt

 

By Elton Camp

 

Although Jack Spratt his diet may hate

Shouldn’t have a problem with weight

And he won’t have any trouble at all

With his level of the bad cholesterol

 

But Mrs. Spratt may be another story

And far too soon, she will go to glory

Her state of health just can’t be right

Because her type of food is a fright
